The companions don't understand why little Keel has been wearing that weird and disgusting floating wolf fur. If everyone has been fighting side by side with each other through thick and thin, they may even think that Keir has been bewitched by that thing.
Tightening the corpse of his companion on his back, Kilby stroked and expressed his thoughts.
It turned out that Keir felt that in the forest, this thing that could point to the direction of the wolf king could not only lead them to Knight Lanisa who was fighting the wolf king, if they had not yet decided the winner.
And if the wolf king got rid of Lanisa Knight's pursuit as before, and walked ahead, or joined his pack of wolves, or wanted to kill their hunter team. These things can help them know the approaching wolf king.
Keir's reason is quite reasonable, and the old hunters who took the matter also think there is no problem. If the rendezvous with Knight Lanisa is completed as mentioned before, this thing can naturally be destroyed at any time.
But once the battle between Knight Lanisa and the wolf king has not been decided, then this thing can help them find the wolf king who must be in the distance, and Knight Lanisa who is fighting with him.
In the end, the old hunter in command nodded in agreement with Kiel, and he arranged for a young hunter to tie the rope that controlled the empty wolf hide to his waist belt.
So, after arranging this matter, everyone came to the top of the rocky mountain.
The last wooden wall not far away is burning fiercely, without the tall rock wall blocking it, it is like a huge torch or lighthouse at this moment, spreading its existence far away.
The wind on the top of the mountain was still so strong, the old hunter at the head checked the ropes stored on the edge of the top of the mountain, first tied part of everyone's survival materials to the bottom of the ropes, and then carefully lowered them from the edge of the cliff.
This rock wall was not very high, and soon the old hunter knew that the supplies had landed safely on the small platform below by the feeling of the rope in his hand.
These last survival supplies were quite heavy, and if the thing couldn't break the rope, his own weight could naturally bear it.
Carefully holding the rope tightly with his hands, the old hunter turned his body upside down, and little by little sent his whole body out of the high rock wall.
"This is the most adventurous thing I've ever done in my life." He shouted loudly to the other hunters who surrounded him.
Fearing that something might happen later, he wanted to say some bold words, but the old hunter Tost, who was about his age, waved his hand in disgust: "Hurry up, hurry down."
The old hunter on the rope had no choice but to clamp the strong but slender rope with his legs, then lowered his arms little by little, and sent himself down little by little.
"Really." The old hunter Tost leaned out of the rock wall and looked down: "This rocky mountain looks high, but in fact it is because there are no tall trees or other mountains around it. It is only one hundred It’s a little taller, in my hometown when I was a child, all the big trees there are so tall. What is this! Hey.”
Keel didn't know where the old hunter's childhood home was, but it certainly wasn't Kendall. After all, it was not counted as the big elf tree that existed in ancient times in the ancient elf ruins. He didn't see any particularly large trees in Kendall County. The tallest ones are the big trees near Yinyulin Village, but the tallest of those big trees is no more than forty or fifty meters high.
Although the surrounding forest is also very strong and dense, the height is not very high. And there are not only tall trees in the forest, but also all kinds of other plants are everywhere on the ground, just because it is winter at this time, they have not stretched and grown.
Soon, the cry of the old hunter who had just descended came from under the rope on the rock wall. He signaled that he had come down. The rope was strong and there was no problem. Everyone can go down one by one.
Keir was the second one. He tightened his grip on the corpse of his companion on his back again, and then squatted down to grab the rope outside the rock wall.
The body behind him was firmly fixed, so Kiel was bolder. He wrapped his armor-gloved right hand around the rope, then grabbed a part of it with his left hand, and then turned his body around so that his arms supported the weight of his whole body.
The rope hanging in the groove cut out of the rock wall bounced straight. Kiel swung his legs twice to find the rope under his body, then clamped it tightly with his legs, and hung the whole person firmly on the rope. , he slowly let go of the palm that was holding on to the rope.
"How's it going, Keel?" asked the companion.
Keir has the heaviest weight on his body, as long as he can go down successfully, then everyone else will naturally be able to go down.
"It's okay, the rope is very strong. I'm going down." After finishing speaking, Kiel slowly let go of his two palms, and the rope wrapped around his arm was under the weight of Kiel's whole body, slowly letting Kiel slide down. go.
The hard cowhide armor on his right arm was hissed by the ropes, but under the professional harden cowhide craftsmanship of Kendal City craftsmen, the armor he had always trusted did not disappoint Kiel.
With a distance of more than ten meters, Kiel slid down at a slow speed, and soon reached the bottom.
Because the speed of the slide was not fast, Keir only bent his knees slightly after landing on both feet.
Before he could lose his center of gravity due to the dead body behind him, the old hunter who came down earlier grabbed Kiel, who was standing unsteadily.
"Thank you, uncle." Keel separated his feet and immediately stood up.
"Hey, Uncle sounds like I am much younger." The old hunter smiled and pulled Kiel into the small platform, out of the way of the rope landing.
The supplies that came down before are placed here. Kiel glanced at the hidden place he discovered before, but didn't say much. He couldn't decide whether to tell his companions about his previous discovery, but at this time, he didn't want to make more troubles and some selfish thoughts still prevailed.
After all, if the wolf king is not eliminated, their life and death this time are very unpredictable.
The shoulder was patted by the old hunter on the side: "Keir, I will continue first, you look at the people who are waiting to get down, don't let them fall down with the things."
Keir quickly agreed, and then the old hunter tied the survival supplies to the bottom of the rope going down, sent it down, and then walked down holding the rope himself.
As for Kiel, following the shout from above the rope: "I'm coming down!", the young hunter with the dead old hunter's body on his back also climbed down little by little.
He doesn't have Kiel's full armor, so naturally he can't rub and slide down like Kiel, but the advantage is that he didn't wear heavy armor and metal weapons, so he doesn't weigh too much. In addition, the old hunter is old after all. His weight is still much lighter than that of young people.
Usually, it is not obvious that the old guys are much better than the young hunters in bowing and archery with their arms, but when they compared it now, they found that they were old after all, and their weight was much lighter than that of young hunters.
He is a bit lower than the young man in height, and his body muscles are not as good as the young man's. Although the explosive power in a short period of time is not inferior to them, but the physical strength is much worse due to the shrinking of the muscles and the shrinking of the bones.
When the young man came down, Keel grabbed him by the arm and made him stand on the platform.
Keir told him to let him be like himself, hold the companion who came down firmly, and then turned around and slid down to the next platform with the rope.
In this way, the previous person slid down, and the next person fell from the rope. Soon, there was only the last commanding old hunter left on the top platform. The large group of northern land wolves approaching on the other side of the wall spat **** the ground, cursed something in their mouths, then bent down and grabbed the rope with one hand, clamped the rope with both feet accurately in the foot socket, and then The other hand reached down, and as soon as the palm was changed, the whole person swished down the rope quickly.
When he was young, he built a tree house built on a big tree. At that time, he often used ropes to go up and down. Now he uses this skill many years later, but his body has not forgotten the skills he learned when he was carefree when he was young.

When Kiel was working on the rope road for retreat, because there was not enough rope at that time, the last few places were made with wolf skins.
At this moment, on a small platform on the steep rock wall behind the rocky mountain, the old hunter at the head watched the wolf-skin rope in his hand get into trouble.
"Keir, is this thing reliable?" He looked at the thing in his hand that couldn't be called a rope with a look of disgust.
In this regard, Keir touched his nose, and he himself was a little muttered and speechless.
"Anyway, they can hold me in this body." Keel said so.
But the old hunter pointed to the corpse on Keir's back: "Then add him?"
"It's best like this. Although this place is almost close to the ground, you will still die if you fall from this height. Be careful, you'd better do it separately." The old hunter nodded, and then helped Keir tie the bundle firmly. The corpse was untied, and then he first tied the supplies to the bottom of the wolf fur rope, and lowered them down the rock wall little by little.
Fortunately, although they have not been professionally treated, these wolf fur strips are just randomly cut into strips, but since Kiel is the wolf fur strip made of the strongest fur of some adult wolves extravagantly made ropes, these things still hold up. heavy material weight.
Seeing that these supplies could hold up, the old hunter was relieved. He nodded to Kiel, and climbed down with the rope skillfully without saying anything.
After waiting for a while, waiting for the old hunter below to touch the ground and get out of the way, Kiel tied the young hunter's body to the bottom of the wolf fur rope that was pulled up, and then lowered it down little by little.
"Got it, come down." The companion's voice came from under the rock wall.
Keir waited for a while, and then carefully stopped pretending to be aggressive. He stepped on the rock wall with his feet, and climbed down little by little while holding the wolf fur rope with both hands.
The young hunter who was carrying the corpse of another companion just came down, and Keir told him on the rock wall to let him separate the corpse from himself, because unlike the strong and reliable ropes, these ropes are made of wolf skin. He didn't have enough confidence in the simple rope.
The companion looked at the wolf skin rope and felt that it was indeed not reassuring. Then, after another hunter slid down the rope, with the help of the other hunter, he unloaded the corpse tied behind his back.
A little bit like ants, everyone gradually descended from the highest platform of the rocky mountain to the bottom of the steep side of the rocky mountain by rope.
The old hunter who landed first moved away the living supplies, immediately took out the bow and arrow from his body, leaned against the solid rock wall of the rocky mountain protruding from the ground, and raised his bow to be on guard.
It is still far away from the rocky passage that is convenient for going up the mountain. That passage is on the other side of the rocky mountain, just facing away from where they are now.
Keir then lowered the body down before climbing down himself. When it landed, it specifically avoided the corpse of its companion tied to the bottom of the wolf fur rope.
After removing the corpse, Keel drew his long sword and stood on guard.
"It's very quiet around here. Those northern land wolves are probably gathering at the wooden wall at this moment." The old hunter said softly.
Kiel nodded, closed the visor of his helmet and said, "Let's move quickly. Although a large number of northern land wolves are gathered on the other side of the rocky mountain, I'm afraid that some northern land wolves who go out to patrol or hunt prey will come from here." Pass. As long as one finds us and makes a noise, then we can only rush to the forest desperately."
"Or, let's climb to the rock wall again?" The old hunter also made a joke.
It's also a no-brainer, so Kiel chuckles at that a little respectfully.
Soon, hunters one after another came down from the rock wall along the rope, and when the last old hunter Tost also landed, he directed everyone to carry all the things they could carry on their backs and headed in one direction. go.
At the bottom of the rocky mountain, there is a strange white mist that should not appear at this time. Everyone thinks that the mist is strange, so they move quickly and want to leave this place. They had identified the direction they needed to go at the moment at the top of the mountain before, so even though they were descending from the rocky mountain and surrounded by white mist, everyone still walked in the right direction.
-
There was crunching snow under my feet, a faint mist around me, and the sky was thick and gloomy gray clouds. At this moment, the surroundings were actually white or gray-white that didn't look very clean.
Compared with the clean white snow in winter, Keel feels that what he sees around him at this moment is more like the color of ashes after being burned by flames.
The heat burns off all the charred charcoal left behind in the body tissue, leaving only the final ashes that represent a permanent presence in the world. The ashes stubbornly resisted the burning of the flame, and in the future, they will resist the invasion of time for an unknown amount of time.
Kiel hunted with a long sword in one hand, and stood a solid metal shield on his chest with the other hand. On the belt behind him, the companion hunter who followed him was holding his belt with one hand, and then in the companion Behind him, another hunter grabbed his belt.
Although the surrounding white mist is not thick, it is far worse than the spider-shaped monsters we met not long ago, but everyone still dare not take it lightly. After all, this is a remote forest where few people appear. In the forest, everything will happen. Appear.
For the sake of caution, the old hunter Tost followed the bard's story, everyone firmly grasped the belt of the previous person, stood closely, and quickly broke through the strange fog-shrouded area.
In places where this situation is unknown, the most taboo thing is to keep a distance between people. Keeping a distance, isn't this an obvious opportunity to attack any bad things that may exist.
Therefore, in the face of this situation, the brave and wise heroes in the story have already given a solution.
Everyone grabbed each other and made sure not to look around, especially not to look at the faces of their companions, or to respond to the shouts of their companions who might be there.
When starting from the rocky wall at the bottom of the rocky mountain, everyone agreed that the area covered by the fog was not too large, so we just rushed out of this area in one breath, regardless of anything in the middle.
Fortunately, no one encountered anything along the way, and at the moment they touched the forest trees, they miraculously walked out of the fog-shrouded place.
The field of vision suddenly widened. Although there were still endless trees blocking it, the clear air in winter did not block the field of vision like fog.
Everyone loosened their belts, and then gathered together to observe each other, making sure that everyone was well and that it was not strange, and that everyone's face was ruddy, and there was nothing strange about it.
The old hunter Tost breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at the tall rocky mountain behind him, and the firelight illuminating the clouds on the top of the mountain was clearly discernible.
He judged the direction, they were still a little bit off in the fog just now, he knew this kind of thing. He clearly knew that when human beings couldn't see or couldn't see clearly, it was impossible to walk in a straight line.
Keir, who was at the forefront, is doing the same now.
After confirming the direction, he led the crowd to carry their things on their backs, whispered, and rushed to the place agreed with Knight Lanisa.
Keir glanced at the empty wolf fur hanging from the rope around his companion's waist, and found that the slightly tilted direction of the thing was not in line with the direction they were heading at the moment, but he didn't say much. The wolf king and Knight Lanisa The situation is unknown, it is best to rush to the meeting place according to the agreement at this moment.
If you get there and can't wait for Knight Lanisa, then it's time to talk about it.
-
The wolf commanded by the Northern Wolves at the moment was lying on the ground in the rock passage, staring at the burning wooden wall not far away with many of his subordinates.
With the pungent black smoke that rose from the burning, it knew clearly that it was the charred corpse of a northern land wolf.
It doesn't like this smell very much, it is not only harmful to the health of its sensitive nose, but also reminds it everywhere that the fuel of those flames and black smoke comes from the same dead men~www.mtlnovel.com~ But this is the last obstacle to them Those human beings whose mouths are covered with the blood of their fellow men will have nothing to stop them.
It will perfectly execute the orders and tasks entrusted to it by the great wolf king, and in the end it will be the only wolf that is most loyal to the wolf king. The other guys who fled and retreated or had objections will eventually be restrained by their retreat and disloyalty, and have no chance to become the most loyal part of the wolf pack under the wolf king.
A few strong hunting northern land wolves ran over, and these guys, who were exhausted recently, approached the leading wolf, and informed the leading wolf of their discovery in low and disturbed voices.
From the forest to the rocky mountain, a section of originally open snowy plain suddenly appeared a whole circle of white mist. The smart northern wolves clearly know that there should be no white mist in this season, and it is such a big and clear white mist.
Do not penetrate into the forest, nor enter this stone mountain.
After listening to his subordinates' description, the wolf climbed up cautiously from the ground, called the most elite guards, and then came to the entrance of the rock passage at the bottom of the mountain.
It was found that it was exactly as the subordinates said.
It screamed at the white mist outside the passage, but the white mist didn't respond to it. It boldly led its men into the white mist, walked through the white mist, and came to the forest. It didn't find anything strange, so it turned back to the rocky mountain.
But it was cunning and told its subordinates who went out to hunt not to go out for the time being, and those who hadn't come back should not go out after they came back. After the wooden wall is extinguished and all human beings who have no way out are killed, they will leave here together.
As for the food to eat, some of the same kind who were stoned to death could barely support the wolves for two days.
